"My specialty is physiological psychology and behavioral neuroscience, with active research interests in the sense of taste, feeding behavior, and central pattern generators," St. John posted on the site.
Season 36 of Jeopardy! premiered Sept. 9 with television legend Alex Trebek at the podium, despite battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer. Last week, Trebek underwent more chemotherapy.
"I lost about 12 pounds in a week. And my numbers went sky-high, much higher than they were when I was first diagnosed. So, the doctors have decided that I have to undergo chemo again and that's what I'm doing," Trebek told "Good Morning America."
You can watch St. John compete Friday at 7 p.m. on WFTV Channel 9.
